I Can't Believe Presidential Candidates Appear on Tyra's Show

She's one of the worst self-made hosts/ interviewers on television right now.
While interviewing John Edwards for Friday's Tyra Banks Show in Manhattan, Banks surprises the presidential candidate with a meal from Wendy's as a nod to where he and his wife celebrated their first and subsequent anniversaries.
I can't stomach her self-centered interview style: "When I was on the runway... You lost your brother in a car accident? That reminds me of when I didn't get this print ad I wanted once. Girl, it was bad. Especially because I really wanted to get my hair done. Ya know. So, tell me more about the brother you lost. Did he like models?"

God, everyone in my household loves Tyra. My roommate/nanny watches it twice a day, and subjects my little daughter to it too!

Tyra just wanted a reason to grub on some good greasy food while on the air... Poor John Edwards probably had to chewin, smacking them lips and even hearing the tongue and saliva swirling around in her mouth. ewww.
Joy - ever been around one of those annoying people who chew SO loud you can't hear yourself think? hahahaha

Oh. My. Gawd.
I wanted to kick that dude in the throat, Snarky. Thanks for all the text messages.
Note to all - chew with your mouth closed. Please. Especially if you resemble the Pilsbury dough boy and you're a heavy breather. Good god!

I love the Tyra show, can't really comment on this episode cuz I totally missed it...buttt you hit the nail on the head with "her self-centered interview style"... For the most part, I think it's refreshing to watch her. She's silly. Her interview style is designed to lace in with reality tv. It's her show, people are just on it.
